Travel back in time

Get to know Spain’s past through visits to any number of Parador hotels located in historic buildings throughout the country.

Andalusia’s Moorish history comes to life in the Parador Carmona, a 19th century Arab fortress with commanding views of the southern countryside. Visit nearby Seville to get in touch with the most iconic aspects of Spanish culture. Spend the evening in the Parador and feel as if you’re living within a tale of the Arabian Nights as you enjoy your dinner of scrumptious local partridge in the restaurant’s grand dining room.

A visit to Parador Cuenca, meanwhile, immerses you in the heart of Castille and provides incredible views of this UNESCO World Heritage City from your rooms inside a former monastery overlooking the Huécar Gorge. Fall in love in the classic Plaza Mayor or on your visit to the famed Hanging Houses, and let yourself be swept away by the sound of the bells of Santa María y San Julián Cathedral as they echo through Cuenca’s countless, winding streets.
